Something with basic GUI controls already implemented, like a simplified version of Java Swing or Java AWT or Windows Forms or Windows Presentation Foundation... Something like that, but much simpler of course. Is there an open library with such contents?

Yes, it's called Minecraft...

 

It has classes like 

GuiButton

and 

GuiCheckBox

. You can use those in your own GUI instead of making your own.

 

There is also a library for Minecraft which you can use. It's called Forge...

 

It adds a simpler way of opening your GUIs, as well as a lot of other utilities which you can use to make your modding life easier.

 

Seriously now, what do you want more?

Don't PM me with questions. They will be ignored! Make a thread on the appropriate board for support.

 

1.12 -> 1.13 primer by williewillus.

 

1.7.10 and older versions of Minecraft are no longer supported due to it's age! Update to the latest version for support.

Tabs, DropDown Lists, List Selectors with scroll bars. To name a few.

Look at 

GuiContainerCreative#drawTab

and 

GuiScrollingList

. Dropdown lists are not in Minecraft right now I think, o you might have to add that yourself.

About that - If I could gather some people to also work on it, I'd love to "rewrite" Java FX to Minecraft - at least some part of it.

 

If you know FX you know what I am talking about - tree structure, Nodes, Properties, Listeners, Bindings, Events (top-down layered) and most importantly Layouts.

 

If you think about it - project like that would most likely revolutionize everything that is GUI-based. End product could even end up in Forge itself.

 

Sadly - one can't really handle all of it.

1.7.10 is no longer supported by forge, you are on your own.

      Camouflaging Mods: Rename & Reskin

      By Serhii · Posted

      "I want to understand how complex mods with ASM transformation and coremods work, such as Xray or AntiXray. Why do they break when you simply rename packages? What features of their architecture make refactoring difficult? And what techniques are used to protect these mods? I am interested in technical aspects in order to better understand the bytecode and Forge loader system."

      Title: Why Is It So Hard to Rename and Restructure Mods Like Xray or AntiXray? 🤔 Post text: Hey everyone! I’ve been digging into Minecraft modding for a while and have one big question that I can’t figure out on my own. Maybe someone with more experience could help or give me some advice. Here’s the issue: When I take a “normal” Minecraft mod — for example, one that just adds some blocks or new items — I can easily change its structure, package names, or even rebrand it entirely. It’s straightforward. But as soon as I try this with cheat-type mods like XrayMod or AntiXray, everything falls apart. Even if I just rename the classes, refactor the packages, or hide its identity somehow, the mod either breaks or stops working properly. XrayMod in particular is proving to be a nightmare to modify without losing its core function. So my question is — why is this so much harder with cheat mods like Xray? Is there something fundamentally different about how they’re coded, loaded, or protected that prevents simple renaming or restructuring? And if so, how can I actually learn to understand someone else’s cheat mod enough to safely refactor it without breaking the core features? I’ve already been spending over two months trying to figure this out and haven’t gotten anywhere. It feels like there must be some trick or knowledge I’m missing. Would really appreciate any thoughts, tips, or references — maybe there are guides or techniques for understanding cheat-mod internals? Or if you’ve successfully “disguised” a cheat mod like Xray before, I’d love to hear how you did it. Thanks in advance for any help or discussion. ✌️

      Game crashes after loading a schematic

      By TileEntity · Posted

      Where did you get the schematic? Source/Link? And do use an own modpack or a pre-configured from curseforge? If yes, which one On a later time, I can make some tests on my own - but I need the schematic and the modpack name
